Calling all Gilmore Girls fans! This news is about to make or break your entire day. Remember, it’s okay to cry.
At the end of Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life, we were met with possibly one of the biggest cliffhangers ever as Rory revealed to her mom Lorelai that she is pregnant. Ever since that moment, fan theories have sprung up about who the baby daddy might be. Unfortunately, if you were rooting for Jess Mariano, we’ve got some bad news for you. In an interview with AOL Build, Milo Ventimiglia sealed the fate of this particular fan theory.
“No. No, it is not Jess’ baby,” said the This Is Us star. “I feel like everybody’s like, ‘But man come on, what if he came out with a pompadour, leather jacket and a smart brain?!'” He laughed, “Then maybe it would be.”
Even though this hopeful theory died hard, don’t be too quick to give up just yet. This revelation gives us one more definite piece to the puzzle, and although it may not have been the answer you were hoping for, it doesn’t mean that Jess couldn’t still be in Rory’s future.
